Tiger Models Leopard 2 Revolution 2

Another one I found at a show for about half what it goes for on eBay, lurking under a pile of WW2 German stuff on a small vendor’s table. I fell for the box art but once inside the box I was very impressed: crisp detail, impressive molding and not a whole bunch of parts excepting the tracks which are three pieces per link, not too bad. It took about four hours to get most of the hull assembled, even considering I’m replacing all the molded-solid grab handles with wire.

Easy enough assembly, good fit. Dare I saw “Tamiya-esque”?

Lots of detail everywhere:

Assembly is done enough to paint. This thing went together really well: no fit issues, not a bit of filler anywhere. All in all a fun build. Now to decide what color(s) I want to do it in.IMG_5128 by Russel Baer, on Flickr

It’s out of the box at this point. I may use different tracks though. Nothing against what’s in the box, they’re very good, just a little fragile.
